another reason for never putting USB HD on a hub is power draw. a USB 2 port only delivers 0.5amp and a hard drive can take up to 0.49 . so it will not share well
give it its own port

USB3 drive in a USB3 port will be far better anyway ( does anyone still buy usb2 drives ? )
I have never used a USB3 hub so no comment on those

usb3 drive in usb2 port may call for more power than port can supply..
